About Us
The Carolina Crash was developed in
1995 as part of an overall vision of the
Carolinas Rehabilitation to serve the
sport and recreational needs of its
patients through
ASAP, the Adaptive
Sports and Adventure Program; a
Blaze
Sports affiliate.  Additional  founding
program partners include the hospital
and its Foundation as well as several
veteran players.

The rugby program continued for many
years under the direction and
sponsorship of ASAP and today
Carolinas Rehabilitation and ASAP
remains its primary sponsor.  It is the
only sport in the area that specifically
promotes athletic competition for
athletes with complete and incomplete
quadriplegia and one of only two
programs that serve the state

After a 2 year hiatus from competition
due to lack of traveling players, the
Carolina Crash regrouped and in 2007
incorporated as its own non-profit due to
the explicit need to raise funds that
would directly support the mission of the
rugby team and program.

The team remains closely linked to the
hospital, which still provides funding as
well as recreational therapeutic staff for
practices, competitive travel and
equipment transportation.

The Crash is a 100% volunteer run 501
(C) (3) organization and a member of the
United States Quad Rugby Association.
